Learn how to take your games to the next level at Puerto Rico's first monetization-focused game development competition, Funnke Jam!

Funnke, IGDA Puerto Rico, and Digital Tree invite you to join us for a weekend of game jamming, industry talks, and more. Benefit from hands-on experience in implementing marketing, advertising, and monetization techniques in your games. Hear from experts on current game industry trends and success stories. Connect with your peers and fellow local game developers. Work in teams to develop mobile games within 28 hours, prizes will be awarded to the mobile games that employ the most creative use of in-app purchases with the Funnke app growth engine!

No experience required to participate but be ready to assist your team in the areas of game design, programming, art/animation, or audio/music. You can arrive with a pre-assembled team but we encourage participants to collaborate with new people at the event! For the game jam, you can develop a completely new game or work on an existing game of your own that contains no in-app purchases or monetization. Further details on the competition rules will be posted soon.

This event is open to anyone with an interest in game development. It's also free to all members of the Puerto Rican chapter of the International Game Developers Association. The event admission fee will be waived for anyone who signs up for IGDA Puerto Rico before the event begins!

Participants are required to bring their own computers/laptops and whatever software needed to assist in the creation of video games.
